TODO/bugs In SILC Libraries
===========================
- o Security fixes from the latest draft for MAC key and MAC computation:
- the packet sequence number.
-
o Compression routines are missing. The protocol supports packet
compression thus it must be implemented. SILC Comp API must be
defined. zlib package is already included into the lib dir (in CVS,
o Public Data (variable length) - This is defined only if
the authentication method is public key. If it is any other
- this field does not exist and the Public Data Length field
- is set to zero (0).
+ this field MAY include a random data for padding purposes.
